Shots

Huey had to go to the vet yesterday. He weighed in at 9.5 lbs. The last time I took him to the vet he weighed 5.1 lbs, so he has grown quite a bit. While we were there he was offered dog biscuits. He would not have any of them, but did accept the cat treats. There really is something wrong with this dog. So he got one shot in each shoulder. Then the vet says he has to get a shot up the nose. Well the dog must have sensed this because he leaped up onto me and dug his claws into my skin. He then grabbed a hold of my hair. I tried to get the vet to help me and she just stared at me. So I finally got him all calmed down and got him up on the table. The vet squeezed the stuff into his nose and I thought the dog was going to choke to death. His little collasped trechea started acting up and it was very traumatic for him and me. He had a very rough day and could not wait to get the heck out of there. Poor Huey!!!!!!!!

Long Weekend

Well, the dog and I went to my parent's house for the weekend. He gets very excited to get there. He loves my dad and craves the attention from him. Well, I was gone for most of Saturday so Huey had to stay in the cage for the majority of the day. The cage I have at my parent's house is small. It is the one we used before he grew. The dog id pretty cramped up in there, but he likes that cage for some reason. Probably security. He just looks so funny in there. He got into the cage and his little buddy, Daz follow him in there. It was quite funny and quite cramped.

On Sunday we went for a walk around the lake. It is about a 3 mile walk which my dog had no problem doing. He walks so far ahead of us that he probably thinks he is not on a leash and walks himself without anyone around. He is funny like that. He likes to be very independent. On our drive home, he was completey tired. Usually in the daytime in the car, he is so nosey and wants to see everything. Not this day, he was out!

Groomer Jail

Huey finally got a haircut today. It was not without some drama though. I dropped him off at 9:30 this morning and told the groomer that I was going to the dentist. I went to the dentist and had to stay longer than anticipated. I got back to the groomers at 1:58. The lights were off at the shop and there was a note on the door saying that the woman had an appointment and had to leave. She said she would be back at 3:00. I could not believe that the dog was left in the shop with no lights or anything and that she would not tell me this before I left him there. I had a little meltdown because I was worried about him. What di he think being in a new place in the dark without someone he knows. I did not like it at all. So I was very relieved to pick him up at 3:00. It was weird though. I thought the groomer looked a little like my grandma when she was younger. She too is a dog lover.

When we got home I was telling my mom that I got the dog out of doggy jail. While I was talking to her on the phone, I noticed a chunk out of the wall. My dog has been eating at part of the wall. What is up with that?! He had to go into time out. Enough of this kind of business.

Pillow

I called for Huey for awhile today. I looked all over. He doesn't come when I call now. So I have to search for him. He sometimes goes and hides under the furnace, or he goes into the second bedroom and lays on the pile of clothes that needs to be folded. He likes to take the bras and sleeps right next to them. He is a very weird dog. Today I called for him and he did not come. He was in his cage when I called for him. He had pulled in a pillow so he would be comfortable. I could swear that this dog is part human. He looked very cute! Somehow this dog never ceases to amaze me.

Shoes

Last night I was so angry. My dog ate the heel off of a new pair of heels that I just bought. He has never even touched my shoes before. Oh I could have killed him. I don't know why he would do that now. He has always been so good with shoes and pretty much anything that is mine. He does like to chew pens and that sort of thing, but come on now. AAAAAAHHHHH! I don't even know how to respond to that. Well, I better go check to see what he is up to now.

Haircut

The dog needs a haircut bad. He also needs a nail trim. He is a shaggy little thing. He goes to the vet for shots in a few weeks. The dog is going to get a haircut before that time because I want him to shed a pound or two. He has gotten fat and everyone notices it. So he is also on reduced fat food, which he also hates. Poor thing!!!

He has a new playmate now. We bought my dad a puppy. He is pretty stupid though. He runs into everything and has the shortest legs I have ever seen. He tries to bite my dog all the time too. When we are near this dog, it makes Huey look like a great dog, which he already is. He seems like he is the best dog in the world, so I guess it is good that we got him.
